3/4 tube it looks like
on  an  OLD  winchester  1894 [made in 1894]
mounted  forward of the ejection  port
eye releif is just right

any speculation when this scope was  made and
what  its  worth [value  of gun too??]

when drugs are outlawed only out laws will have drugs
DO WHAT EVER IT TAKES TO STOP A DEMOCRAT
OBAMACARE....the biggest tax hike in the  history of mankind
free choice and equality  can't co-exist
AFTER THE LIBYAN COVER-UP... remind any  democrat voters ''they sat and  watched them die''...they  told help to ''stand down''

I remember that my Dad considered putting a Redfield long eye relief scope on his Model 71 Winchester in the early 60's.  He finally decided it wasn't a good idea, and sold the 71 for a Model 88 (he was left handed).  I'm just assuming it was probably from that same era.  I found a 1964 Redfield pocket catalog in my pile of junk that shows a M-294 extended eye relief scope, listed at $49.50.  Unfortunately, the description doesn't include the power or tube diameter.  The picture looks the same, though.  Eye relief is said to be 6 - 10".

One thing that you need to consider with the value of your rifle is the mounting system.  Apparently the scope base came with  a "limited depth drill" to drill the barrel and mount the base.  I'm no expert on gun values, but think that might affect the value of a first production year M-94 if it was mounted that way.
